10 Times Actors Went Too Far (And Improved Movie Scenes)

Walter Hill's 1979 gang land epic The Warriors is a bonafide classic of cinema. Full of wonderful acting from Michael Beck and James Remar, paired with a great set and some brilliant imagery, The Warriors is a quintessential viewing experience for all movie fans.

Its most famous moment comes from David Patrick Kelly's antagonist Luther - leader of the Rogues and a vicious street soldier - when he drives up a derelict street in an attempt to provoke the titular Warriors out into the open. Driving slowly, menacingly, Luther is seen clinking three bottles together with his fingers.

Though no dialogue was scripted for the goading, Kelly felt it the right time to ad-lib the film's most well-known moment, saying in an almost sing-song voice: "Warriors, come out and play!" He repeats the line as he drives, and as he does his voice becomes more strained, more crazed, and his face flashes red with intensity.

If you haven't seen the film, you're more than likely are aware of this line from other media, be it The Simpsons or Robot Chicken. But the original is the best of all its imitators - creepy, threatening and full of venom, it's the kind of brilliant quick thinking that comes along once in a blue moon and shapes a film.
